<p>By the end of this year I should have a five on AP English Lit, AP Bio, AP US</p>
<p>I've seen the website, but what does "History 042 (1 c.u.) " mean?</p>
<p>I assume 1 c.u. is one credit unit, but will it benefit me in freeing up some of my classes etc for my major/grad requirements??</p>
<p>THANKS!!</p>
<p>In general you can only use AP credits to fulfill elective requirements or for advanced placement into upper level courses, not core/major requirements. For example, assuming you’re in the college, having a AP credit in a history class does not get you out of having to take a class in the History sector.</p>
<p>ughhh so why do we even bother taking the ap’s?</p>
<p>for the award, you help your high school’s rankings, so you can brag, because you cannot find a better way to spend your time, because you don’t want to be one of the few people not doing it, etc etc</p>
<p>Because in order to get into Penn you have to be taking the AP class, and a lot of schools make you take the test if you are in the class.</p>
